Stormy Aftermath 4

I’ve headed into a different part of the sixth boro each of the past three days . . . today was the North River . . . passenger terminal, since

three cruise ships came in around 0700 hrs . . . Gem and Brilliance, shown here, as well as Caribbean Princess, still outside the Narrows when this screenshot was taken. John J Marchi is a ferry, and I’ve not gotten confirmation it carried passengers. Anyone ride a Staten Island ferry today? And as of 1830 hrs, all have again departed. Notice the icon for Glory Express in the screen grab below? I believe this is the 2-million-barrel tanker referenced in this article. It’s been outside the Lower Bay for a few days now.

Cruise ship passengers debarking and others boarding in midTown . . . along with closed midTown streets closed because of this bent crane AND

disrupted LIRR and subways . . . made for lots of surly folks, if not a zombie apocalypse then at least an invasion of the cheeriness snatchers. For outatowners, on a normal day, eachtown listed on this Long Island Railroad schedule board would have several departure times listed.

Jersey City and Hoboken, coastal NJ cities across the river from midTown, have experienced their share of disruption. Here Catherine Miller delivers a crane barge northbound as a helicopter (National Guard?) flies to the south.

Vicki M moves another barge near the Hoboken ferry terminal, then

as Lynx moves a load of generators, loaders, and other equipment (not sure what some of it is),

The side of the Binhamton facing Harlem: Duked, only one white section remains with only a few of the original double hung windows. From Edgewater, it looks fine!, and they’re taking reservations: not so on the Hudson River side.
